Thread: 93 eurovan transmission problem / qustions

  1. 05-05-2012 01:06 AM #1
    Hello,

    Just picked up a 93 Eurovan that was non running for a few years. I was able to get it running and runs great. However it does not shift and appears to be in a limp mode as all gear selection lights are on and seems to be in 3rd.

    My questions to start trouble shooting is to see if there is a reset? Does it the TCU/TCm need to be reprogrammed as it has sat for for so long.

    I do not want to start down the trans replace until I can confrim it is bad.

    Thank you

    Tyler

    There is no "reprogramming".

    Your right in thinking that. You could just have a bad sensor or solenoid. Scan the trans computer for trouble codes with vag-com.
    Auto trans fluid change or flush will not make a trans fail. Stop spreading the wives tale/urban myth.
